How's everyone's lockdown exercise going?

Diet is still crappy with more opportunities to snack adhoc during the day.
However now i dont have a 3hr roundtrip each day into the city so i am sleeping longer and running at least 5km every day outside with 30min elliptical and benchpress every other day.
Its been a full week so interested to see how this shakes out!

Not gonna lie, it started off the same. But as I continue to just stay at home I've become lazier and lazier and I haven't done a minute of exercise the past week. Diet is also slowly getting worse and worse.
It's just so tough to stay motivated right now.

It's been fine so far. I've changed to an almost complete body weight regiment from heavy lifting in the gym. You can do a lot with your own weight if you know how.
<---
No, but minus the run it's what I've been doing. I need it to warm the fuck up before I can run outside though. Give me at least the mid-40s and I can warm myself up from there!

After putting on like 13 pounds, started up my usual exercise routine again this week: jog/walk 5 days a week, lift weights 3 days a week and do supplemental cardio(wii fit, beat saber, etc) on the other 2 with weekends as rest days. Glad we have a treadmill here otherwise I'd just get fatter >.>
poorly - the gym is attached to my office, my commute included 2+ miles of walking so without going to work i've got nothing
i really regret returning my Oculus Quest last year, as i could use beat saber BUT i will have Ring Fit Adventure thanks to an incredibly kind soul here, though, so i am really hopeful right now

20 years of having my leftover muscle mass from football stay pretty consistent, and 3 weeks with no lifting has almost got me back to before my non-football playing shape. But I am doing 6 days a week of a body weight program along with 50 push-ups and sit-ups. I do need to find something to keep my leg strength up though. That's where I'm losing the most.
Not bad actually. Got the ketttlebells out of the garage and started my routine again. I've lost a few pounds in the past 2 weeks too.
just did some ring fit and between that, jogging, and yoga videos I seem to be doing all right. Been going on a lot of long walks too so that helps
Pretty much the same before the lockdown happened. P90X3 in the morning and 30 minute session of yoga at night. (I'm thinking of just replacing my lunch with the yoga routine since I don't really eat lunch anyways.)
Even with Ring Fit Adventure my exercise has been crap aside from taking walks around the neighborhood (with proper distancing from anyone I run across), however, my diet has been much better since this whole thing started since I'm obviously not eating out and getting takeout very rarely. I've lost some weight on the back of just the diet changes alone.
I like my personal space when exercising, and is it stands I have none. I have to wait until late in the evening to do it and by that time I'm ready for sleep. I do need to get back to yoga as my posture is getting crap and I feel all my muscles tightening and it's increasing my anxiety. Need those chest openers! :)
No lifting since I tweaked my shoulder right before this happened. 45 minutes of peloton, core work and virtual shoulder PT. Stinks but better than nothing.
oh man, GermERA is going to have a field day with those shoes and city pants on the bed.
I did really well the first two weeks but this one's been harder. Especially since all the jogging I had been doing aggravated an old strained arch. I'm trying to do more streching excercises but it's not the same.
I used to take daily walks after work (FWH) but today it's raining.
Got the Oculus Quest out of the drawer and it's currently charging. Will get some Beatsaber in before bedtime.

Told myself I NEED to hit my goal weight this year and finally get all this weight off once and for all and so I'm working hard to keep things going without gym access. Working out twice a day at home M-F. Cardio every morning using an Airdyne, then cardio in the evening T/H, and Weights/Bands in the evening M/W/F.
It's not going at all. I used to get at least 10000 steps in a day easily but since I was laid off it's like 1000, maybe. I need to start up some sort of exercise routine, I keep procrastinating though.
Doing alright, finally got into a good rhythm!
After that I try to do a morning and afternoon walk that total around 5 miles a day.
So far between that and keeping a fair diet I've been doing alright! Saturday is my main rest day from my routine too, so I don't end up doing non-stop daily workouts.
- Up at 6:15am everyday
- 6:15-6:30: Ab-burn exercises
- 6:30-7:00: Ring Fit Adventure
- (A Day) 7:00-7:20 Muscle-group-specific Ring Fit Routine
- (B Day) 7:00-7:20 Outdoor Run for ~3 miles

The gym in my apartment closed and I've fallen off the wagon and lost my motivation. It sucks. This thread finally got me to order a new exercise mat and start hitting my floor. SIGH.
To anyone who needs a good "at home" workout and has a couple of decent weights laying around:

I've been doing this twice - three times a week and going on runs at sundown to avoid the popular workout times.

For all those people who find it more convenient to bother you with their question rather than to Google it for themselves.

Right now my GF and I walk in the evenings for about 30 mins. I want to start doing more, especially in the morning. Does anyone have any pointers or routines for someone who is relatively out of shape?
